Leather sleeve for iPad Pro + Magic Keyboard?

Wow, I like the felt interior on that IPP Angus leather sleeve! Thanks for the link!
It’s pretty hard to photograph this, haha. If I push the iPad in further, the magnet will close the top of the sleeve. It takes a bit of effort to take the iPad out. Not hard, but not enjoyable. The pen is in a pen loop and does not get dislodged when I pull the iPad out.
Thanks man you’re awesome! Ive ordered one for my 12.9
Edit: received my sleeve really great quality! Just a heads up for those who order the 12.9 version there is no pencil loop (at least the one I received)

Just received and reviewed a nice leather case for the iPad Pro 11” from Pack & Smooch. Here’s my review:

Hi! I just saw this thread and I was considering the Native Union stow sleeves as well. Is that the Stow Slim for iPad Pro? Thanks
Ok so I’m really hesitant about buying it although it looks great the website says it doesn’t support it probs cause of how u said the pencil doesn’t fit.
I’m fine with the pencil in the other compartment and the iPad and mk in the main compartment but my question is can you send a couple of photos of the different angles so I know that the native union sleeve closes when the iPad is inside as the photo doesn’t show that. Just to see if it fits my 11’ and closes.
Thanks

Does it close that’s my main priority as putting the pencil in the other compartment is fine by me. I just want my 11’ and MK to fit inside the main compartment with the sleeve closed?

The pencil does fit. The picture I posted shows the tight fit on the inside if the pencil is placed into the pen loop. The only reason the iPad isn’t pushed in is so I could get a picture of the fit. If I push it in more, the magnetic pulls the top closed.
It absolutely fits with the pencil and the MK on. It is, however, a tight fit.
Arrived today! It was well worth the price and wait. Excellent craftsmanship from WaterField Designs! The Dash Sleeve fits my IPP 12.9 with MK perfectly.
The Native Union sleeve is solid for my 11”. That’s weird there’s no pen loop for the 12.9”, though — I am not sure I would like it without the pen loop.
When I use the iPP on the lap, I’ve found using the sleeve under the iPad helps counter the top-heavy balance and improves the lapability of the device. I heard something similar on Adapt about using old type covers in a similar manner, and it works with this sleeve as it is so slim and stable — a surprising bonus.

Not a fan of zips or metal clip buttons, too much risk of metal on metal and marking the ipad or/and AMK. Hoping for a slip in leather envelope design that could also double up as protective layer under the AMK when placing on a surface.
I'm wondering if a 13" laptop sleeve would work? It gives more stock options than cases designed specifically for the ipad pro.

This looks like a nice thin low profile option. Not leather though, its StretchShell Neoprene. Has a little side hole slot for the Apple pencil.

Thanks for this I just ordered the Waxed Canvas Sleeve/w piggyback and strap; cant wait. I originally had the Native Union Stow 12.9(returned), but as another mentioned no pencil strap on the inside and I wasn’t to sure if it would fit with the MK.
